Whats a good way to tell if you have frame damage???
As you may know I was in a rear collision yesterday in my 996...I talked to my buddy who is on here and he was telling me about a telltale sign if you had frame damage was if you put 3 pennies in the door gap and it should be perfect all the way around...
On my car it is definately not equal all the way around...it fits fine in some spots and is really skinny in others and is like this all the way around...anyone know anything about this trick??? Or any other ways to tell??

Yeah - I talked to someone at a body shop last year who works on Porshces. The signs you describe are what he pointed out too as indication of frame damage - although he used a plastic shim as the guide. Sounds like you have at least some frame damage. Sorry to hear that.
